The Ancient Egyptian pharaoh Pepi II is often cited as the longest reigning monarch in history but the precise dates of his reign cannot be verified. He acceded around 2278 BC at age six, and is said to have ruled for 94 years.

Queen Elizabeth officially became the world’s second longest reigning monarch in June, passing the late King Bhumibol of Thailand, whose reign lasted for 70 years, 126 days until his death in 2016.
